Episode Summary:
You’ve probably noticed almost everyone is wearing a smart watch or fitness tracker these days to count their daily steps and calories burned.
But you maaaay want to take that information with a grain of salt, especially when it comes to calories burned.
That’s because these devices can be anywhere from 20-90% inaccurate!
In this episode I’ll explain why and tell you which activities REALLY burn the most calories.
“No, you don’t need to throw out the fitness tracker. They do have a lot of benefits. I just don’t want you to take the information about your calories burned as your live and die. There is so much more to it than that and it’s not always giving you the full picture.” - Sarah Haas
